Download or read book Latter day Screens written by Brenda R. Weber and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2019-09-13 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Sister Wives and Big Love to The Book of Mormon on Broadway, Mormons and Mormonism are pervasive throughout American popular media. In Latter-day Screens, Brenda R. Weber argues that mediated Mormonism contests and reconfigures collective notions of gender, sexuality, race, spirituality, capitalism, justice, and individualism. Focusing on Mormonism as both a meme and an analytic, Weber analyzes a wide range of contemporary media produced by those within and those outside of the mainstream and fundamentalist Mormon churches, from reality television to feature films, from blogs to YouTube videos, and from novels to memoirs by people who struggle to find agency and personhood in the shadow of the church's teachings. The broad archive of mediated Mormonism contains socially conservative values, often expressed through neoliberal strategies tied to egalitarianism, meritocracy, and self-actualization, but it also offers a passionate voice of contrast on behalf of plurality and inclusion. In this, mediated Mormonism and the conversations on social justice that it fosters create the pathway toward an inclusive, feminist-friendly, and queer-positive future for a broader culture that uses Mormonism as a gauge to calibrate its own values.

Download or read book Funism the New Religion written by Richard T. Halfpenny and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-10-16 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hilarious tale of a gambler who dreams he died in a mysterious car crash and faces judgment day in a poker tournament with Vishnu, Moses, Jesus, Buddha and Mohammed. It is a satirical, provocative, defiant, eclectic expose of the absurdities that separate common sense and religion. No sacred cows are spared. It emphasizes the wars fought in the name of religions and Gods. Funism, a new religion is juxtaposed with the five major organized religions. The fiery debate encompasses: theology, philosophy, ethics, culture, history, psychology, economics, gambling and politics. The absurdities of religions may seem innocuous to realists, but when fanatics act on them, the repercussion can wreak havoc in society, and among nations.
Download or read book Infamous Eve written by May Sinclair and published by Wheatmark, Inc.. This book was released on 2007-04 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike those who are expected to place their hand on its cover and make an oath, the Bible does not tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. The biblical authors only told theirs. Even the women actually named are remarkably silent, making it easy to believe whatever has been said about their lives throughout the ages. The biblical story of Eve impacts modern society on both a conscious and subconscious level. Are you aware that the authors of the Garden of Eden creation narrative were greatly influenced by the Persians in the fifth century BCE--maybe even taking the basic story from them? Did you know Adam had a wife prior to Eve, the equality-demanding Lilith? Do you think it is possible for a single mother to have populated this planet? It is well past the time for all of this to be common knowledge. "Infamous Eve" includes many legends, stories, and folktales--even that of Eve also being the snake in the Garden of Eden--but first May Sinclair delves into the genetically induced response that has been handed down as a physical, emotional, and psychological inheritance to modern people. She rips open the seams of the historical records to see the weave of the religious, economic, and political threads that have endlessly rolled out the same pattern of notions about Eve and her daughters.
Download or read book Blue Arabesque written by Patricia Hampl and published by HMH. This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These meditations inspired by a Matisse painting are “a paean to the act of seeing, celebrating our capacity to be transformed by the truths art holds.” —The New York Times Book Review Named a Chicago Tribune Best Book of the Year and a Los Angeles Times Favorite Nonfiction of the Year Just out of college, Patricia Hampl was mesmerized by a Matisse painting in the Art Institute of Chicago: an aloof woman gazing at goldfish in a bowl, a Moroccan screen behind her. In Blue Arabesque, Hampl explores the allure of this lounging woman, immersed in leisure, so at odds with the rush of the modern era. Hampl’s meditation takes us to the Cote d’Azur and to North Africa, from cloister to harem, pondering figures as diverse as Eugene Delacroix, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Katherine Mansfield. Returning always to Matisse’s portraits of languid women, she discovers they were not decorative indulgences but something much more. Moving with the life force that Matisse sought in his work, Blue Arabesque is Hampl’s dazzling and critically acclaimed tour de force.
